Hivemind Hits The Books

February 23rd, 2011 @ 11:11 am by Mrs. Cinnamon Bun

It’s funny how you can be thinking about one thing in your own little corner of weddingland, and other people can be thinking the same thing at the same time, and you aren’t aware of it!

Mrs. Meerkat just posted about funny RSVP wording, and Cinnamon Buns and I have been talking about this for the past couple days! I think it was Mrs Eggs Benedict that got us thinking about it.

We want our invites to be fun. You’ve seen some preliminary sketches (more to come on that saga later this week!) so you know we haven’t gone totally formal. We decided that fun options were very “us.” While Googling “Funny RSVP wording” I found this post on the Weddingbee Boards (everything comes back to the ‘bee!). Pay special attention to post #5 by SpaceC06: she posted RSVP options for various themes, ie “Ready for My Close-Up / I’ll Never Work in this Town Again” for a Hollywood or theatre-themed wedding.

It made me wonder… could we figure out cute options that are related to books and reading? We had been hoping to have about 5 or 6 options, a few yeses, a few nos, and at least one “Will express my joy through art on the back of this card.” Neither of us will die if we go with “Joyfully Accept/Regretfully Decline/Regretfully Accept” etc., but it’d be fun to bring the books in yet again.

Here is where I need to turn to you, hive. I’ve been having a few of those weeks at work where I come home, eat, and pass out on the couch. I have no brain left to think up funny/witty/punny/cute book-related RSVP options. Something about being stuck in a good book? Chapters? Pages? Can’t come, Harry Potter #9 is being released? I’m asking you, friends: what do you think might fit?

HA, I think a funny one for declining would be “Will wait til the movie comes out.”

Lol I LOVE the “wait till the movie comes out” answer!
I can also add: “Can’t wait to witness the happy ending” / “Save me a copy for later”

You could have one about being caught between two endings in a Choose Your Own Adventure book… maybe?

Love all the great suggestions made so far! When I found out HP9.2 was being released sometime Spring/Summer of 2011, I informed Mr. Tartlet that we would be going the opening day, even if it was the night of our wedding (lol). I kid, but I’m so excited for the final movie!

Don’t forget that your schedule of events can be your table of contents.
